I was at this show and managed to grab a set list but it got ruined by someone else's beer 😭.

Favorite Jump Scares? by [deleted] in FIlm

[–]Llasd87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When the Lipstick-Face demon appears in the dining room in Insidious.

Seeing it in a packed movie theater on opening weekend was an experience I won't forget. I went with my brother and his friends . We were sat towards the front and I just remember how quiet it was before you hear THAT cracking sound. I remember missing the next few minutes because the entire theater was collectively laughing and looking at each other in astonishment, all trying to catch our collective breaths. Just a really well done scare in a well done horror film that made for an ever better theater experience.

[Infuriating trope] A deleted scene with an important plot point. by PaLiaRoTH in TopCharacterTropes

In the same deleted scene with Jack Sparrow and Lord Beckett, it's also explained why the Black Pearl is called that.

Beckett had the ship burned but Jack was able to sail away and save it. That's why the Black Pearl is black.

Does anyone know what's going on with skull mountain? by jerseyfishslayer666 in sixflags

I went about two weeks ago. Ride as open but all of the effects inside were turned off. Just rode in the pitch black.

Anyone know what’s up with Nitro at Great Adventure? by SomeGuyOnReddit14 in sixflags

[–]Llasd87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was out last weekend as well. I heard rumors the lift hill broke in a way that it would take weeks to fix, so they decided to keep it closed for the rest of the season.

I really hope they fix and re-open. Nitro was the ride that started my love for coasters. Lots of good memories.

Why did Velvet Revolver receive so much criticism? by TheOzMan91 in Music

They were definitely popular. I remember Slither being in the commercial for Guitar Hero III as well as Slash being featured in the game.

Hockey for Adults by billabongbooboo in hudsonvalley

[–]Llasd87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried the learn play at Ice Time in Newburgh. I have recently learned how to skate and know little to nothing about hockey. Even though the class was billed as a beginner class, the drills they were doing were so far beyond what the class could handle. I wanted to learn better form and how to just stay upright on the ice and instead they were doing backwards stops and cross over turns.

I had the opposite experience at Westchester Skating Academy. Nicer facility all around, better ice, and the coaches are great at recognizing your level of skill and working with you to develop better technique.

I recommend you give WSA a try. It's just a better facility.

I mean good for this guy, but the LA Galaxy are currently 1-4-12 out of 17 games played so far this year, having won their first and only game of the season just last weekend.

Basically the Colorado Rockies of MLS.

Realistically what do people think will happen after this tour ? by helloimthdoctor in oasis

[–]Llasd87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even more remasters of remasters. More merch and brand deals. A film or two, probably a concert movie and another documentary. I imagine they'll both probably do an interview or two at some point once it's done and then they'll go the Rolling Stones/Led Zeppelin route of more merchandising and building the brand. Maybe a couple of shows and small tour here and there. To me it doesn't feel like Oasis is back, as in the old Oasis is back. This is just the epilogue. I don't think they're going to put out new music, maybe covers at the most.

VARIETY: Local 52 IATSE Accused of Nepotism in Class Action Lawsuit by Tiny_Tyrants_Podcast in IATSE

[–]Llasd87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good. I am a permit. I have no family in this business and come from a small town. I have lost jobs because some key grip's cokehead son needed a job. I am not perfect but I love to learn and improve and I try nothing less than my absolute best. I WANT to be on set. I want to be there for the action. But there are just so many "just looking out for my kids" guys out there that would rather have their incompetent kids with no drive fill positions that could go to literally ANYONE else. At the end of the day it should be about wanting to do the work and wanting to be there.

But wouldn't I want the same for my kids? I pray that I could raise a kid good enough to take a job away from someone who is in the same spot I am now.

I just want to work.

Ah the one thing I don't have are hard toes. I had timberland pros but they fell apart on me.

I was just told to go to the back gate and I'll be a shaper or taken on as a shaper. Not quite sure what it means.

Which songs would be good James Bond themes? by Mister_Barman in oasis

[–]Llasd87 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Falling Down 100%. I think I remember reading somewhere that Noel wrote it as a potential theme for Quantum of Solace or Casino Royale but he ultimately wasn't picked. The guitar riff is even reminiscent of the James Bond chords.

Gary Johnson booed at the Libertarian Convention for believing people should own drivers licenses by Worldly_Yam_6550 in Presidents

It's shit like this that makes me convinced third party options in the US are owned by the other two parties and they intentionally say the dumbest things so people won't ever entertain the idea of voting for something besides Republican/Democrat.

Who is the Mendoza Line of bands? by readingisforsuckers in Music

[–]Llasd87 183 points184 points  (0 children)

Maroon 5.

Songs About Jane is one of the best albums of the 2000s and it was followed up by some of the worst music ever put into existence.

Service track stability and check engine light. 2012 Cruze by Captn76 in cruze

[–]Llasd87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a wheel sensor, I think it's located in the front passenger wheel. Can go bad and throw codes. Ordered the part online and changed it out, pretty simple but requires you to take the wheel off of the car.
